The Hollies - Life I've Led lyrics
[The Hollies - Life I've Led lyrics]
I wore only black and my eyes were green
And I can tell you now that I'm very old
I'd kill any man for a piece of gold
Oh, what a life I've led
I've been a real bad man and
I ought to be dead oh, what a life I've led
I've been real mean man full
Of cheating and lying
Left a lot of men dead and
A lot of girls crying yes, I did
I rode in a Dodge on a sunny day
I went there to steal all the railmen's pay
And when I left town all the streets ran red
I had ten grand in gold
And three guards lay dead
Oh, what a life I've led
I've been a real bad man and
I ought to be dead oh, what a life I've led
I've been real mean man full
Of cheating and lying
Left a lot of men dead and
A lot of girls crying yes, I did
I was a bad man with a heart made of stone
If you were a wise man
You would've left me alone
I've lived all my life, such a lonely one
Just me and my horse and a fine six-gun
I've lived and I've loved and
I knew great pain
But, I know now I'd do it over again, singing
Oh, what a life I've led
I've been a real bad man and
I ought to be dead oh, what a life I've led
I've been real mean man full
Of cheating and lying
Left a lot of men dead and
A lot of girls crying
Oh, what a life I've led
I've been a real bad man and
I ought to be dead oh, what a life I've led
I've been real mean man full
Of cheating and lying
Left a lot of men dead and
A lot of girls crying
